Description
The new CRO CORE system was launched in December 2020, with all existing accounts automatically transferring to the new platform.
Using a new system can be perplexing and, as with all new IT systems, tweaks may be required to address bugs encountered in using the system.
Having received such commentary from member companies, Shannon Chamber is delighted that the Registrar of Companies, Maureen O’Sullivan, has accepted our invitation to give, via this Webinar, a live demonstration on the functionality of the system, what adjustments have been made since its launch and, to respond to any queries webinar attendees may have about the system.
This is unique opportunity to familiarise yourself with the system and to outline any issues currently being experienced in filing returns.
